1.	What is Angular in contrast to AngularJS?
Answer» AngularJS was the initial version of the Angular framework RELEASED in October 2010 mainly maintained by Google and by a community of individuals and CORPORATIONS to address many of the challenges encountered in DEVELOPING single-page applications. The revolutionary framework, with its two-way binding concepts, took the JavaScript community by storm and developers adopted the framework quickly. AngularJS used JavaScript as the primary programming language. After a few years, Angular 2, which was a complete rewrite of the whole framework, was released. It adopted TypeScript as the primary programming language. Since then, until today, more than 4 major versions of Angular have COME out, improving the framework and making it better than before. Angular is the blanket term used to refer to Angular 2, Angular 4 and all other versions that come after AngularJS. Angular 2, 4, 5, 6 and now 7 are all open-source, TypeScript-based front-end web application platforms.
